The Lake Plan Malcolm and Ardoch Lakes Background Document
THE LAKE PLAN MALCOLM AND ARDOCH LAKES BACKGROUND DOCUMENT i DISCLAIMER The information contained in this document is for information purposes only. It has been collected from sources we believe to be reliable, but completeness and accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The Malcolm Ardoch Lake Landowners’ Association (MALLA) and its members are not liable for any errors or omissions in the data and for any loss or damage suffered based upon the contents herein. Maps are provided only for general indications of position and are not designed for navigational purposes. Boaters and snowmobilers/all-terrain vehicles must take due care at all times on the lakes; users of the lakes are responsible for their own safety and well-being by making themselves aware of any hazards that may exist at any given time. BACKGROUND Preliminary work for the Lake Plan began in 2012 when the Malcolm Ardoch Lakes Association executive were asked for information related to the water quality of the two lakes. Some information was available through the Ministry of the Environment Lakes Partner Program due to the efforts of Ron Higgins for Malcolm and Ruth Cooper for Ardoch Lake who conducted water sampling to provide Secchi data. A second source was the five-year sampling rotation conducted by Mississippi Valley Conservation Authority. The implications of water quality and water levels initiated discussions about the need for consistent monitoring on the lakes. A Committee was formed under the leadership of Ron Higgins and topics beyond water quality were identified. A land development proposal for Ardoch Lake became an urgent matter and the Lake Plan was delayed. -

Depa rtment The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 ii ABSTRACT This paper traces the development of early sporting activities in the province of British Columbia. Contemporary newspapers were scanned to obtain a chronicle of the signi• ficant sporting developments and events during the period between the first Fraser River gold rush of 18 58 and the completion of the transcontinental Canadian Pacific Railway in 188 5. During this period, it is apparent that certain sports facilitated a rapid expansion of activities when the railway brought thousands of new settlers to the province in the closing years of the century. -

A Summative History
CHAPTER 1 “A MUSEUM HERE FOUNDED” A Summative History Chip Colwell-Chanthaphonh, Museum Origins, 1897−1910 Kristine A. Haglund, In 1893 the city of Chicago hosted the World’s Columbian Exposi- Richard K. Stucky, and tion, a celebration inspired by the 400th anniversary of Columbus’s arrival Pamela Wineman in the Americas. The fair attracted global attention and inspired a generation to rethink architecture, science, industry, the arts, and city planning. Even the severe economic depression that started that year would not dampen the enthusiasm awakened by the exposition’s displays, performances, buildings, and demonstrations. Spurred in part by the exposition, Denver’s most prominent citizens visited Edwin Carter in his mountain home in Breck- enridge, Colorado (Fig. 1.1). Headed by Governor John L. Routt, the Denver entourage knew Carter held a magnificent collection of Colorado wildlife. Carter (Fig. 1.2) had come to Colorado during the 1859 Pikes Peak gold rush and had had modest success. He retired several years later, settled in a tiny cabin in Breckenridge in 1868, and pursued his passion for natural history, particularly the study of birds and mammals. Carter was a wholehearted collector, as one historian has written: Edwin Carter found such joy in collecting that he too structured his life and work around it. The prospecting and tanning that filled his summers played second fiddle to the wintertime pleasures of tramping through the Figure 1.1. Edwin Carter’s cabin, woods, observing, tracking, and taking game. Breckenridge, Colorado. Accompanied by a burro and his dog, Bismark, who pulled a small sled with food and supplies, the tall, thin miner roamed the hills in snowshoes, watching the small movements of the birds in trees and the way the snow dropped from the branches 11 DENVER MUSEUM OF NATURE & SCIENCE ANNALS | No. -
PSALMS for MOTHER EMANUEL E L E G Y F R O M P I T T S B U R G H T O C H a R L E S T O N
PSALMS FOR MOTHER EMANUEL ELEGY FROM PITTSBURGH TO CHARLESTON the pittsburgh foundation | 2016 FOREWORD All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. — ROMANS 8:28 It requires a lot of faith to practice Romans 8:28. On June 17, 2015, a gunman walked into Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal (A.M.E.) Church and opened fire on women, men and children concluding a Bible Study while their eyes were closed, “watching God.” The nine people killed were armed with Bibles and the Holy Spirit. My childhood friend and ministerial colleague, Rev. Clementa Pinckney, was killed. Our text message stream is still in my cellphone; I will not erase it. Waltrinia Middleton, a college friend, and her aunt, Rev. DePayne Middleton-Doctor, were killed. These personal relationships made the tragedy sink in even more. On July 10, 2015, the Confederate flag was removed from the South Carolina State House. Many in my state and across the nation began having more serious conversations about race. I tremble thinking what it cost us to get there. Emanuel A.M.E. Church is one of the most historic African- American churches in the nation. And Charleston is dubbed the “Holy City” for the plethora of churches that make up its landscape. Every corner of Charleston reminds us of past prejudices, recent hates and an optimistic future. There is a beauty in the city that is majestic. The nation saw it in the outpouring of love after June 17. The Book of Psalms was the hymnbook of ancient Israel. -
Film Reviews
Page 117 FILM REVIEWS Year of the Remake: The Omen 666 and The Wicker Man Jenny McDonnell The current trend for remakes of 1970s horror movies continued throughout 2006, with the release on 6 June of John Moore’s The Omen 666 (a sceneforscene reconstruction of Richard Donner’s 1976 The Omen) and the release on 1 September of Neil LaBute’s The Wicker Man (a reimagining of Robin Hardy’s 1973 film of the same name). In addition, audiences were treated to remakes of The Hills Have Eyes, Black Christmas (due Christmas 2006) and When a Stranger Calls (a film that had previously been ‘remade’ as the opening sequence of Scream). Finally, there was Pulse, a remake of the Japanese film Kairo, and another addition to the body of remakes of nonEnglish language horror films such as The Ring, The Grudge and Dark Water. Unsurprisingly, this slew of remakes has raised eyebrows and questions alike about Hollywood’s apparent inability to produce innovative material. As the remakes have mounted in recent years, from Planet of the Apes to King Kong, the cries have grown ever louder: Hollywood, it would appear, has run out of fresh ideas and has contributed to its evergrowing bank balance by quarrying the classics. Amid these accusations of Hollywood’s imaginative and moral bankruptcy to commercial ends in tampering with the films on which generations of cinephiles have been reared, it can prove difficult to keep a level head when viewing films like The Omen 666 and The Wicker Man. -
The First Vuelta a Colombia, January 5-17, 1951 Jane M
ENSAYO Bicycling as a Response to La Violencia: The First Vuelta a Colombia, January 5-17, 1951 Jane M. Rausch/ University of Massachusetts Amherst Sport historians have long recognized the relationship between most popular sport and why Colombians have embraced their sport and nationalism. As suggested by the editors of the pedalistas (cyclists) with a passion unique in Latin America.2 recent anthology Sports and Nationalism in Latin/o America, more often than not, sports have been “a key arena for offi- cial forms of nationalism aimed at integrating a given society The 1940s: Political Turbulence and the Beginning of the in the face of internal differences or for schemes aimed at La Violencia taking advantage of sports’ deep popularity to obtain political gains and legitimization” (Fernández L’Hoeste, McKee Irvin, In the first half of the twentieth century, the traditional- Poblete, 2015, 2). Even in Colombia, a country broken into ly intense animosity between the Conservative and Liberal disparate regions that geographically reinforce the emergence parties rose to a fever pitch after the disputed election of 1946 of distinctive cultures, sports at various times have surmount- brought the Conservative candidate Mariano Ospina to the ed this obstacle to play a crucial role in the establishment of a presidency.
